Pig equipment specialist Quality Equipment marked 20 years success with their Transition Feeder with dealers and partners from around the World flying in for a weekend of celebration.
With over 11,000 Transition Feeders sold to over 30 countries, Quality Equipment based in Woolpit Suffolk wanted to celebrate a UK export success story.
During the event held on the 13th and 14th September 2019, international visitors, from as far afield as Japan, were taken on an itinerary through Norfolk and Suffolk taking in an outdoor pig unit, specialist straw based finisher unit with lunch at the Larling Angel followed by a tour of the English Whiskey Company in East Harling.
The celebrations culminated in an evening drinks reception and hog roast at the Company’s recently completed new office and distribution building. They were joined by over a 100 UK farmers (many who were instrumental in the early adoption and trialling of the Transition Feeder), staff and guests including from the European research and academic sector.
